ReflectionI truly enjoyed working with wiki and voice thread, even though I struggled with using these sites. Through using these sites I gained experiences that are much needed for teachers to be successful in incorporating technology into the classroom. The entire experience was a learning experience. It was neat to see and hear my voice thread when it was complete. I also liked viewing my classmate's videos - they were all very creative. Voice thread can be used in every subject, and I think students would enjoy working with the site! I plan on using voice thread in my future classroom.
